So, how do you prepare for wearing no make-up??Take down and put out of sight: all mirrors, spoons, and vaguely reflective things so that you don't have to bear seeing yourself looking utterly hideous :P *ultra smooth double thumbs up*

I told some guys this at club on friday and they were distinctly disinterested but i think this is uber cool:Basically, it's the time in the moon's orbit when it's closest to Earth *there's a special name for it which I can't remember :S* So at the moment, it looks bigger and brighter than it does at any other time of the year and it is simply stunning.

argh.i just checked my card cash account online and my balance was £13 but when I tried to take out a tenner in town it wouldn't let me because it said i online had £5 balance. majorly confused. sorta worried.TG majority of ma savings are locked up in an ISA :D wahey. very safe.

how people manage to make so much fecking mess when they're eating. Do they purposefully smear strawberry fecking jam over the table or are they really too stupid not to know any better?!?!

and WHY do parents let their kids throw food ALL OVER the floor?!?!? I doubt they let them do that at home!!!

Weather was lovely today, hope it is again tomorrow too :P

I wish the library was open on a sunday :/ i haven't been in ages:s it was always so quiet...

<3

i could really go for a soft boiled egg and marmite soldiers right now :P

watched that on thursday night. so much love for that film. it was on film4. i don't ever remember seeing a trailer for it when it came out in 2009 :srecommend it so strongly...i want someone to see it so that i can talk to them about it!!

There was a problem with my prescription so i wanted him to give me something else instead :P

Again, the looks...i'm not pregnant. On telling the receptionist that i was there i was asked whether i was seeing the soctor or the midwife...omgosh.

ok, i'm 16 and my folks weren't there with me but seriously....I'm a total nun!! how, how could i be pregant?!?!omgosh!!! Latin was fantastic xD ...i swear I'm not the fist person ever to shiver though...jenny's skillage with the wig...that was epic :D

Got a place at County 6th form *i really don't care who insults it, i love this school and life is what you make of it, if you don't get good grades you can only blame so much of it on the teaching, sooner or later we all have to accept responsibility for our own actions*

fish costume is sorted :D BOOYA!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SUMMER YOU FECK-AWESOME GIRL!!!

:D

gosh, today was gorgeous :) sunshine, blue skies, air to breathe :P

CURRY!! I've wanted curry all day and mama has made it for dinner; i'm one lucky gal!

No, it's just that whenever I go to the surgery on my own, I feel as though people are looking at me and silently judging that by my age and lack of accompanying parents I must be seeing the Doc to request emergency contraception or consider an abortion or something...

Paranoid much? :P

Just had to go and ask for more acne treatment stuff *fun times*

EURGH

English was crap.

Is that the first time I've ever written those words? I feel like a traitor for writing it but honestly, today's lesson was soooo shite. I was looking forward to hearing the last two remaining speeches and then doing some poetry revision *well...I wasn't looking forward to the poetry stuff but there's a lot of notes i need to make so it would have been an important lesson.*

So what did spend period 5 doing then?

Practice essay.

FECK THAT :( mine's trash. I honestly think I'd have done better had i just sneezed on the paper.

I had a headache in the lesson :( although, i probably did bring it on myself...drank very little water throughout the day :/ dang.

GOSH

Did 6012m rowing in PE Hell to the YEAH!!

^^ loving this song right now...there's also a cover by Birdy that I think's pretty good :P

When trying to answer this question, it’s easy to get side-tracked with the obvious things...

·Friends who don’t mind a 4am phone call

·A mum who’ll help you dye your hair

·Brothers who wind you up to the point of snapping, but whom you love nonetheless.

·A dad that thinks the world of you...honestly, I do a half-decent painting and he reckons I’m the next Van Gogh... hopefully not meaning the part about his break-down though...hmmm

It’s easy to get side-tracked with these obvious things because they make you smile. Being able to smile; being truly, blissfully happy, that’s what makes life worthwhile.

Sydney J. Harris, an American author and journalist once said,

“Happiness is a direction, not a place.”

A journey.

Not a destination.

So, what makes a great journey great then?!

For me, it’s the view along the way. It’s the Sun’s smiling face beaming down at you from his water-colour blue blanket. Now, just for the sake of being really Disney, let’s say there’s a couple wisps of cloud up there with him...and they’re in the shape of an msn-style smiley face *colon, close bracket*.

Now, what I’m really trying to convey here, amidst my teenage-ramblings, is that really, loving that journey rather than just looking past it to where you’re headed is what’s going to get you grinning. In that sense, happiness is about enjoying the here and now.

·Living in the moment

·Embracing those little impulses that creep upon us from nowhere

Something that encapsulates that sentiment is this quote from William W. Purkey:

"You've gotta dance like there's nobody watching,Love like you'll never be hurt,Sing like there's nobody listening,And live like it's heaven on earth."

...dance like there’s nobody watching...

What a brilliant line.

I love that [line] because no matter how lacking your sense of rhythm is; everyone can dance because, after all , dance is just an expression of what we feel, it’s living and loving in the moment and the emotion, letting go of your inhibitions and laughing in the face of embarrassment: just going for it. I recently read a magazine article stating that people are 76% less likely to develop Dementia if they dance 3 or 4 times a week...so...there must be something good about dancing!

That last part though, live like it’s heaven on earth...

Nobody knows for sure whether there even is a heaven or a hell or infact anything after our portion of Earthly time but we all have our own ideas about heaven but whatever form it may take, it’s a place for bliss. So, if believing in a heaven makes us feel happier, why not?

Belief Is a Powerful Thing

Regardless of what it is that you believe having faith in something brings comfort to so many people when times get hard. Be it a god or Karma or any number of different things, faith can hold us together when we’d otherwise be falling apart...like a safety pin holding the strap of your dress up...of course that’s a trivial example but the concept remains the same, when everything else is gone and you’re at the bottom, one little thing; faith, or indeed a safety-pin, can lift you up again.

Of course, belief in yourself is pretty darned important too. Being able to look past your flaws and see what others see.

"Love yourself, for if you don't, how can you expect anybody else to love you?"

I’m so much more comfortable with the way I look now, than I was before. I’ve still got issues with my body, I don’t like my legs...

But they work.

I can walk and run and skip and dance. For that, I’m really lucky and so grateful.

Besides, they’re the only pair I’m ever going to have...so hating them would be an almighty waste of time!

Be comfortable with who you are and stop worrying about what other people want you to be.

Now, to summarise, What Makes Life Worthwhile:

Happiness:

·Being able to appreciate all of the wonderfully unfathomable intricacies in the world around us

·Living in the here and now and making the most of it

·Having the courage to believe in something, no matter who tries to disprove your faith

·And finally loving yourself.

That, in my opinion, makes life worthwhile.

Well, there you go!! that's my speech for English :D I wrote it Sunday afternoon and then spent sunday night, monday night and tuesday night learning it :D literally in the nights, I found that in bed was the only time i could properly chill without other people around to hear me practice. and then i practiced to martin on the way to school this morning too:P and again in tutor *ears blocked and eyes closed...must have looked a lil weird...read it through a couple of times as well*

anyways, it went well. I think i was shaking but i tried to keep calm and carry on xD and i did well and got a good mark and i'm so flaming happy. i'm also reeeeeee-aaaaaally glad that it's over and done with now :D

mmm mum's making roast pork for dinner :) smells soooooooo good!!

anything good on the telly box tonight?? i feel like vedging :Dactually...i think mom's watching downton abbey or something...oh and then she wante to see the dream school with jamie oliver.hmmm :P

I think I'm going to have to do my speech tomorrow...sort of not dreading it...but I'm not very confident in front of peeps...I'm just gonna try to breathe and speak all slow like 'n' stuff :D

heard some more awesome speeches today :P LOVED Harvey's and Tom's...gosh, Giles went and did why lara croft was the ideal woman but it was actually brilliant xD I thought it'd be relaly offensive to women but somehow he made it very pro-women and it was fantastic xD what a great delivery as well :PMy speech isn't like anyone elses...I hope i don't have to answer questions...

btw jamie, rachel thinks you're the reason she won't go to university...you know cuz you asked her a difficult question about her speech? :) guffaw.

I'm not entirely sure what questions could be brought up though tbh...i mean, my whole speech is just my opinion so i don't really know how people could passionately question it :s

Quiche for tea :D

Peace and lovexxxxp.s I really liked Friday Night Dinner...don't know who else *other than jacob* has seen it but I reckon i'll be watching it again for the super happy fun times.
